So occasionally I like to single box and play one of my alts while I build rested for my group. That or I’m just in the mood to single box. I decided to resume playing an old forgotten alt, my troll rogue.
So I’m turning in the rogue level 50 class quest (the sunken temple class quest). For those not familiar with the location of this quest its north east of Hillsbrad. I decided on my way out that I would jump off the cliff as a short cut.
So on my raptor I do a running leap off this cliff and roll down the mountain crashing thru trees and land within feet of a shaman my level. The odds of that. I wonder what this guy was thinking. Just standing there hearting to have this troll rogue on a raptor come falling out of the sky from on where.
It was so random and the odds of something like that happening is so rare I laughed my ass off. I only wish the trees made sounds. Imagine if you would a quite peaceful spot, interrupted by the sound of a raptor complaining as it hits branches and brush as it rolls down the mountain you look up and see a falling troll disappear in mid air and shadow step behind you then proceeds to three shot you while you’re trying to hearth back home. Well it was a close fight because I took some damage from hitting every branch of the ugly tree down the mountain but to top off the experience I won.
The story is just so random and funny to me I had to share.

Decided on the hood because it looked cool XD
I'm planning to twink him out for the 59 bracket. I ran him to Plugger in BRD 5 times only to have 5 greens dropped. I think they nerfed him and theres no more Barman shanker :( Anyway I plan to farm hnor in the 59 bracket that way I can kill people and have fun off the bat, rather then get 2 shot for weeks until I get enough pvp gear. That way once I hit 70 with him I can buy as much gear as it will allow me to save.

I like to Jump from the cliff down to the Goldmine in AB with my mage, cast slow fall and then invis. Always funny popping AE right above the heads of the opposite faction guarding the GM when you do that.

Just hope you dont have the kinda luck I have and land on a cliff giants foot.
had a similar instance on my rogue once in STV was getting the crap kicked out of me by the goblin miner's there (the shards quest) when a 70 paladin fell out the sky (no idea from where) healed me up klonked everything for me i had tagged and rode off before i could say anything, totally random to this day i still havent figure out where he jumped off.

I have a somewhat twinked 59 rogue and I found outland greens you can get to be better than even epics from old world; see
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Firetree&n=Nikitai if you want some ideas (far from full twink, but I usually can kill (incl fun 3-4k ambushes) anyone up to about l66/67 or so)

Hes almost 52 now. Going to play him all week while I build rested. Just going to pick up the quests that are useful to him only. Going to research the instances and see what drops in Ramparts and BF and see what their level requirement is then farm that as well. Far as enchants go, I recently moved him to one of my lock accounts and my priest is a enchanter so I'll see what I can do and just farm it. Enchants and pretty much anything today costs to much these days. I just finished purchasing 5 epic mounts (ground) for my alts and have about 1k left. I didn't spend much time at 70 with my mains farming. The money I do make have to go towards flying mounts they are level 64 x5 now so I really don't want to spare much. however time on the other hand I'll run whatever to pimp him out.
Having a fun time running him in instances. Got him the thrash blade the other night and soloed his 50 class quest with my locks in about 15mins lol.
I'd link him but because I recently moved him its not showing up on armory I can however show you this old video I made with him. This video is over 2 years old but I did manage to get a really high rating on warcraftmovies with him. In fact it was the highest rated movie I had before I started 5 boxing.
I don't know why but i've always been the master at killing warriors with my rogue. I killed a red con (from memory) in this old video. Again at least 2 years ago, I no longer click. there may be some clicking in there :whistling:

note that some of the quest rewards she wears are somewhat long chains (like the trinkets) and you have to be careful to start them early enough to not ding 60 - I used a main to help do several of the HFP quests.
http://shadowpanther.net/ is a good resource for rogues
